    You only need a *.nix server if you need to run the MasterServer/Nat facilitator yourself.

    However, if you need to run a persistent "game" server, it gets a bit tricker for the time being. You basically would need a server running MacOS or a supported flavor of windows (good luck on the second one) as you need to be able to run the Unity runtime.

    Someone who has already done the leg work might be able to give you better information, but here's a start at least.
